Looking for anyone related to. or knows of William Orth. He was borned on August 20, 1900; died Dec 1965; and lived in Reading, PA

I am looking for a William as well, father Johan Orth, siblings, Walter, Pauline and Lewis or Louis... Thanks Contact me please if you think you might be connected.

The William Orth I'm researching was born in 1900. Is that the same William?

Could be.. I don't know..do you have his father's name, siblings, mother's name?
I have little information on him. Thanks

I have little information on him. I do not know his parent's names.

Sharon, Im sure now we've been looking for the same one, Nicholas John Orth born in Prussia (1852-1922). He is my great grandfather and the family lore says he came from Hamburg. I do have his California death certifcate. I have been tracking him for many years under the name of Nicholas and having little success. This meassage board is great.

Please e-mail me at sharda@pacifier.com

To Doreen:
My family lives in the Reading area and there are a few William Orth's in our family.

I was recently in Orth Germany and found many intersting things about the Orth name. There are two towns in Germany called Orth. One is found in North Germany along the Baltic sea. Orth is an aristocratic name and they were Baltic Princes. I don't know what happen to them since they came to the States, but in Germany it is a rare name. The 2nd town of Orth is located in the middle of the country.
